A few more years ago..
Chaeyoung is the youngest of the three Park siblings, Jiyoung or Alice being the oldest and Eunwoo or Michael being the second-born. It was shocking for the whole family when Eunwoo gathered the family together in a dinner informing them that he'll continue to serve in the force. Oh, It also came with
"Appa,Eomma,Unnie,Cheang... I'm gay" It didn't bother Chaeyoung for a moment because she already knew about this but in a span of moment she realized that her brother came out not in the way they planned it to be
"I told you I get to come out first!" Chaeyoung bursted out in her seat looking at her brother sporting an amused smile while their parents was just looking at the interaction between them
Their parent's attention turned into Alice, waiting if there's something that their first born wanted to say "Oh,No, I'm straight" Alice announced
Silence took over the table. They were all seated properly waiting for what will be their parents reaction. Not until Mr.Park took out his wallet from his pocket and handed 10 folds of 50,000 korean won to their mother while the latter took it while smirking.
"Uhm...what's happening?" Alice asked
"We already knew. So we made a bet on who's who will come out first. As you can see, I won" Their mother smiled triumphantly
"I always thought you're courageous than your brother,Chaeyoung. What happened? Now I'm 500000 won poorer than your mother" It's their father's turn to speak
"I - ...I don't know what to say" Chaeyoung spoke, certainly shook that their parents knew all along
"It's okay, Chaeyoung-ssi that your brother came out before you though we already knew about it. Also know that your Appa and I are both proud in all of you and this circumstances won't change a thing on what we look at you. You're still our children and no one can change it" Their eomma said while looking lovingly at their children
All of them stood up and went it for a shared hug and laughter. They continued their dinner talking about the moment a while ago
"By the way, How did you guys know?" Chaeyoung asked out of curiosity
"I always have this gut feeling since then" Their mother replied "You weren't that sleek either, Really? leaving your phones on the table while texting your beaus? Not totally likeable if you were hiding it from us. We were just waiting when are you guys gonna tell us" she continued
"Wow chaeng, We really are that dumb" Eunwoo said to his younger sister
"Yeah, I figured."
"Another thing, before I get deployed, I want to go to a sperm bank to donate. Maybe if I can't have my own child, There will be a lot of people that I can help. You too,Chaeng. If someday, You'll find a partner and decided to conceive, you can use it in many ways, either on her or on you with your partner's egg of course. So that the baby will have no complications and our genes will still run through your child. Don't worry about me though, I'll treat your child as my niece as it should be." Eunwoo informed their whole family
"That's amazing, Oppa. Really. Thank you but we want you alive and well, I still want my children to have a cool uncle like you" Chaeyoung thanked her brother and respected him a lot for bring considerate to people around him. Especially to his family. "I also wanted to tell you something"
"You're dropping out of college, aren't you? Don't you dare, chaeng" Their dad warned
"No.No.No, It's not that. I...kinda have a girlfriend..."
"We've already established that,Chaeyoung. Now tell us who she is" Alice asked
"It's Jennie Kim" she announced
"Jennie Kim? Like, THE Jennie Kim? Heiress of KGC?" Now it's their mother's turn to ask
"Yep" she answered nonchalantly
"Oh geez, Keep on dreaming Chaeng" Her mother replied and all of them laughed except her
"Okay, you guys can laugh but don't be shock if I'll bring her home one day. Look! My wallpaper is literally her! and here's our photo together" she snickered showing bunch of photos of her and Jennie
"we get it chaeng, you're an art student, photoshop skills on point" her sister commented
"Why don't you call her?" his brother continued jokingly
"Well, I can't! She's in a flight right now from L.A."
"There you go!" His brother laughed
"Okay, just keep your door opened when you bring her home" His dad made a mocking tone
Chaeyoung just rolled her eyes "Whatever. I'm gonna slap an "I told you so" face when you meet her"
...
later that night...
"Hi love,how was your flight?" Chaeyoung just finished her shower and was ready to go to bed when her girlfriend called her
"Long and tiring but fine, I slept through it. How about you?" Jennie asked her girlfriend for almost 3 years now
"Well, we had an interesting dinner with the fam" the tall girl placed her phone on her phone stand in front of her vanity mirror while she start drying her hair
"Tell me about it?" chaeyoung looked through her phone and saw jennie yawning on the screen and dropping herself other bed
"I think you should sleep more. You look tired" seeing jennie already on the verge of closing her eyes
"No, I'm okay" jennie insisted
"How about we go on a date tomorrow? If you're free, maybe we can have breakfast together?" chaeyoung asked
"That would be okay, love"
"Okay then, We'll talk about it over breakfast"
"Mkkay, I'll see you tomorrow, I love you" Jennie replied with her eyes closed already
"Love you too! Sleep well my love" Chaeyoung watched jennie drifted off to dreamland before ending their phone call
...
"You really have a wonderful family love"
"Yeah and I'm more lucky to I was able to meet you" Chaeyoung replied to her girlfriend who's sitting right in front of her sipping on her hot chocolate "This is like the best hot chocolate ever" and Jennie just watched her lovingly
They're currently at their favorite cafe right above the country side. Only few people are in there that early so it's only safe for chaeyoung and jennie to have mini breakfast dates there. Knowing that Jennie's face is all over the news in business world in Asia, it's hard for them to keep it lowkey all the time they went out for a date so they settled in indoor dates mostly in Jennie's place. Also, Jennie making sure that her relationship with chaeyoung is severely kept especially from her parents. Knowing that her parents will be intrigued about her beau and might do things that's overboard. yes,they accepted jennie for who she is but jennie is just not ready yet to share chaeyoung to the world especially that chaeyoung isn't out to her parents yet. but now, hearing about chaeyoung's parents being cool about it. She thought that maybe it's time for them to make it more official by meeting the parents.
"So I was thinking..." Jennie started
"yes love?"
"maybe It's time for us to introduce ourselves to them? like, you meeting my 'rents, and vise versa. but if you're still not ready for it, it's totally okay I understand and I'm willing to wait w...."
"Love, calm down. you're rambling" Chaeyoung placed a hand on Jennie's thigh to calm her down
"I'm sorry"
"No,it's okay. I was kinda thinking about it too. I even told them last night about you but they didn't believe me"
"Didn't believe on what?"
"That you're my girlfriend. They thought I'm too imaginative to pretend that you're my girlfriend"
"Oh no"
"Yep, they even accused me that I photoshopped our photos"
"Did you show them our video doing...."
"Jen!!"
"Just kidding, love. How about we set them up for dinner later?"
"Hmmm, I'll check on them If they're available. Can I bring oppa and unnie too? Might as well do it now since Eunwoo's still here"
"Yeah of course. I was thinking about it too"
and from that day forward, they couldn't be more happier when both of their families was glad of them being together. It seems like faith is always on their side or well, that's what the thought. Jennie graduated college ahead of chaeyoung and was quickly trained to be the next CEO of Kim Group of Companies while chaeyoung continued her studies and established an art studio,with the help of Jennie of course. Chaeyoung didn't want any of it but no one was stopping Jennie from supporting her and her dreams,well, what can they say? First month in Jennie's work, they're already set for their lives. Chaeyoung turned 24 and that was also the day they got married. It was happening so fast that they didn't think of anything but just each other.
...
and well...
Chaeyoung didn't think about this that far. Hand on her forehead,while the other is leaning on the sink supporting her body not to fall in any moment. She's looking at the five pregnancy tests showing positive signs. It can't be. They only tried it once since they should wait for another three weeks to see if it's successful or not but their doctor said that it wasn't a guarantee to make it work at the first try but it seems like faith is playing it's own game now. They used Jennie's eggs and her brother's sperm,as they planned it to be, for her to carry it. She's currently in Melbourne, her supposedly first stop in so many countries she wanted to visit while healing herself but she doesn't know what to do anymore.
